Three star links: * 10e20 brings us "The Ultimate Guide to Decoding Digg Speak." It's both amusing and surprisingly thorough. Pretty handy if you're an SMM noob and need to know what "those crazy kids" are talking about. * Now we know why your socks keep disappearing when you wash them...they make a good snake sweater! * Here's an interesting article about how the "Google generation" thinks differently. Generation Google appears to prefer multi-tasking, networking, multiple media sources,and images and video over text, while "digital immigrants" prefer the opposite. Interesting stuff.

Stories, news, and other notable items from the past week: Three star links: * The best SEO training money can buy (hey, we do have to wade through a lot of shit in order to achieve top rankings...). * Apparently Yelp is shutting down accounts it thinks are "trading glowing reviews with other business owners." It's a tricky situation for Yelp since they obviously want to keep the quality and sincerity of reviews up, but they don't want to mistakenly witch hunt innocent people. * Finally, a video of search engine spiders crawling the web.

Super-Sized Roundup Thursday(ish) for the Weeks of 6/1/08 and 6/8/08

SEO Events

My apologies for the missing roundup last week--it was SMX Advanced, and we were pretty busy with conference happenings. I've combined news and whatnot from last week into this week's roundup, so please forgive the extra bloatedness of this week's post (there's no such thing as Alka-Seltzer for blogs, is there?). Stories, news, and other notable items from the past week: ...

SMX Advanced Recap (The R. Kelley Version)

SEO Events

It's hard having a conference in your own backyard. Everything feels so much more stressful--you have to drive back and forth from the conference to your place and back out for dinner and networking events, you have underlying priorities that are hard to miss (I missed the kickoff networking event at the Sculpture Park due to an open water swim clinic), you have spouses or family members you have ...

I always find it difficult to begin conference recaps. To me, they always sound trite. They're the high school English class equivalent of the forced short stories that begin, "We packed up the car to go to the beach..." Thus, my complaining about beginning conference recaps is how I've chosen to start this one. Luckily, there is plenty to talk about from SMX Advanced, and...

Stories, news, and other notable items from the past week: Two star links: * The Industry Standard provides us with the 25 top B to Z-list blogs. Why am I giving the link 2-star status? Because the stupid site spaces the list out over multiple pages. ARGHHHHH. Take your page views and ad impressions and shove 'em up your arse.

Stories, news, and other notable items from the past week: We've got star link Yahtzee today--a link for every star! Woo hoo, time to celebrate! Zero star link: * Mel showed me this, for lack of better words (and please excuse my French) fucked up WikiAnswers response to the question "How many people did Joseph Stalin kill?" Anyone care to improve the answer so that it's not batshit crazy and is instead at least passably objective? Anyone?

Yesterday I sepnt the day in San Francisco at the Domain Roundtable hosted by Jay Westerdal and DomainTools.com (BTW - they've got brilliant tools over there). Since I'm swamped with travel, building decks and trying to find SEOmoz some new office space, I figured I'd just use the ol' bullet point list. What...
